Definition

QUICK PHRASES: normal closure is characteristic, join of all conjugates is characteristic

A subgroup of a group is termed closure-characteristic, or a subgroup whose normal closure is characteristic, if its normal closure in the whole group is a characteristic subgroup. In symbols, a subgroup H of a group G is termed closure-characteristic if the normal closure HG of H in G is characteristic in G.

Metaproperties

Trimness

This subgroup property is trim -- it is both trivially true (true for the trivial subgroup) and identity-true (true for a group as a subgroup of itself).

Join-closedness

YES: This subgroup property is join-closed: an arbitrary (nonempty) join of subgroups with this property, also has this property.
